useful,"'Invention' in' S'oap" Dissolvers and Ad'ita tors, of'which the' following is aspeci fication. a I I q This'invention relates to that class of mixers wherein soapis dissolved, and the can tained water -is, quickly and, uniformly charged withsoap tdany desired degree. A further object includes the provision of a reticulated receptacle for receiving bars of soap, said receptacle being also provided with means for causing "increased agitation when rotated. Another object includesthe provision of simple and'eflicientineans for holding the rotating receptacle in place by easily disconnecting means.

Other objects will appear hereinafter, and I obtain these objects by the device illus-.

trated in the accompanying drawing, where q Fig. 1 is a plan View.

In preparing soapy water for washing cars, dishes, clothes, and for other purposes, it has heretofore been customary-to dissolve, shaved soap or soap chips, or touse soap shakers for making soap-suds for the purpose of charging wash waters with soap. In place of these tedious and haphazard modes cf procedure I provide asoap container 10 which is fitted to be rotated in a suitable receptacle 11, as a pail or equivalent means,

to thereby supply the desired degree of soap to the water in the pail. This soap container has a dome shaped bottom12, which is supplied with a boss 13 of proper construction to fit in a bearingv 14. This bearing is fastened by rivets 15, or equivalent means, to the bot-, tom 16, of the receptacle or pail and forms the lower anchor for the soap receptacle. A

removable cover 17 fits frictionally into'the soap container, and is provided with a shank or journal 18, which is squared at the end in carrying. v v y From the drawing "and description, the

be provided for convenience A bail 29 mav operation of my device will be readilyunderstood. Bars of soap are put into the containein. The cover is then closed. By openv ng thehook the container is readily placed into operative position as shown in Fig. 2,;

for example. By means of the handle the container is rotated,'and the water in. the

pail is quickly charged with the required amount of soap. The containermay then be removed, or it may be permitted to re- -main in position, ifdesired. It is apparent that my device affords .easy and efiicient means for quickly supplying the required amount of soap. It also affords means for stopping dissolution of soap at any time,

and my device is herein also highly eflicient in saving soap as well as time.

Having now described my invention and given a specific application thereof, what I claim as new and useful and ofmy own in vention, and. desire *to secure by Letters Patent is,

1. In a bottom thereof,a hood extending partly'over the top thereof,said anchor device and hood soap dissolverfandagitator, a p 3 liquid receptacle, an anchor device on the I v and means to rotate said soap'container to charge the liquid in said receptacle with dis solved soap to any desireddegree.

2., In a soap dissolver and agitator, a

charged with soap, anchor devices'on said receptacle, said anchor devices belng placed 10a liquidreceptacle for holding liquids .to be off center, and a' cylindrical soap container mounted in said anchor devices for being rotated to charge the liquid vwithssoap.

3.. In soap dissolvers, a soap container. a liquid receptacle, an anchor plate fastened on the bottom thereof, a'hood at the top of said receptacle and extending over said'bot tom anchor plate, said hood havlng a slot and means on said hood for r'otatively holding said container in the slotted hood.

4. In soap dissolvers, a soap contalner, a,

bearing at the bottom and ajournal shaped at the top of said container, a liquid receptacle having/anchor devices off center, said anchor devices comprisinga bottom anchor plate, a slotted hood, a hook on said hood,

and a spring for holding said hook in closed position.

6. In soap dissolvers, a soap container, a bearing at the bottom and a journal shaped at the top of'said container, a liquid receptacle having anchor devices off center, said anchor devices comprising a bottom anchor "plate, a slotted hood, ahook on said hood, a

spring. for holding, said hook in engaging position, and lateral extensions on the said container for agitating the contained liquid.

7. A soap container :Eor-soap1niXers, comprising a cylindrical body provided; with lateral perforations, external ribs onsaid body a bearing on the bottom ofsaid-body, a cover for the top of saiol bo'dy, said'cover being provided with a vshaft, and La handle on said shaft for operating said container'.-'

In testimonywhereof. I have hereunto set my hand on this-12th day! of. June. A. D.,
